The cascading ruffled form of this pendant is inspired by the frilly arms of a jellyfish and features an intricate pattern of perforations inspired by lacy bryozoans. It hangs from an 18” sterling silver cable chain.

Floraform is inspired by the biomechanics of growing leaves and blooming flowers. Each piece emerges from a computational simulation of differential growth, a surface that grows at different rates in different location. The flowering structures expand fastest along their edges, evolving from simple surfaces to flexuous forms that fill space with curves, folds, and ruffles.
